Short Statement: Since the last ICR was submitted, the universe of POTWs in the 301(h) program and subject to the 301(h) information requirements has decreased. This is because three POTWs have withdrawn from the program, or been denied a waiver renewal. Also, there is one fewer State respondent. There are also changes in the distribution of the burden over the three years covered by this ICR because of changes in program status and information needs. As a result, the total burden in the current ICR has been reduced by 9,624 hours.
